Rubber Tubing Keeps Mower Deck In Place FARM HOME Lawn Mowers 31h 38 James Minix Morrison Tenn says he used to have problems keeping the front arm in place on his 2000 Deere LT 155 lawn tractor when mowing over rough ground The arm attaches to a front lifting guide on the deck with 2 “hooks” on it and gaps between the hooks and deck could allow the arm to jump out of the bracket especially when backing up or driving over uneven terrain Minix solved the problem by placing a piece of heavy-duty rubber tubing through both gaps and then inserting a heavy duty 24-in long zip tie through the tubing He secured the zip tie to existing holes in the bottom of the deck “The tubing fills the gaps between the hooks and deck to prevent the arm from jumping out of the hooks I haven’t had to buy another $15 damaged deck hanger for 3 years ” says Minix “Whenever I want to remove the deck I just remove the tubing ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup James Minix 136 Barbara Spears Rd Morrison Tenn 37357 ph 817 937-9655
